London Knowledge Lab: Social Software
- hack the system
- I can think of a lot of reasons to buy the WorldChanging book. But there’s one reason to buy it today: Here’s how the system is supposed to work: you write a book. If people think it’s good they buy it. If enough people think it’s good it becomes a bestseller and widely read, spreading [...]

- Workshop series on Technology, Media, Communities, and Learning

The series is specifically concerned with convergences between: Social software New media-capable hardware devices Interactive / broadcast media Community formation and maintenance Learning and e-learning Greater inclusion, and the growth [...]

- Interesting resonances with our workshop series

- Wikisapces has a mission: Today, we’re proud to raise the bar on a program we started back in January: we’re setting the goal of giving away 100,000 wikis to K-12 educators.

- Vini, vidi wiki
- Wired runs a review on the state of wikis, education included.

- and the winner is..
- Wired’s webmonkey has just published the results of their user survey on tinkers & stinkers of web-too-oh. I liked LibraryThing. Even the name is enough to make you feel warm. Basecamp, on the other hand, seems very useful. Interestingly, MySpace seems to be out. Have we (as in we 12 yr old girls) outgrown it? [...]
